    No, this is like saying that the owners should have to pay a tax for each slave equal to that payed to the government by a wage earning employee.

    The Prison Industrial Complex could make some big bucks to build cell blocks to detain robots guilty of tax evasion.

    I wish like hell I could find a Bloom County strip...it had Opus laying out in his dandelion patch, miffed because just on the other side is Bill "MicroSquash" Gates. Thinking of a way in which to get rid of him he hollers, "Hey Bill! Why don't you sneak a computer code into all the world's computers that will all go off at the same time, turn them all against us and enslave humanity forever!"

    Bill snaps alert, with a cloud of cartoon idea fizz around his head, and then runs off.

    Opus says: "I deeply apologize in advance".
